Top-4
1. Broncos
2. Ravens
3. Colts
4. Packers

The Seahawks, Cowboys, and Chargers are the three teams that I can be convinced about in any order.
Cowboys and Chargers defenses are both 17-23 in DVOA.

Fam, you're smarter than this...

The AFC is weak as hell, how can you quite possibly believe they possess three of the top 4 teams in the league? Broncos and Cowboys are easily top two TODAY.
 
What was ole boy's name who played QB at Nebraska in like 01 or so?

Didn't he get tried out at safety.. I think it was with the Rams.. Or he was adamant he would only play QB or something like that

Crouch. Tried WR/S.

I think he was pretty willing. Just wasn't very good.

All I remember was the cut hip that '01 miami team threw on him and that Nebraska team in the national championship game.. That's when you really saw how different the talent levels were on those two teams

Not according to him.  At least the first time around
 
“I was 23, engaged to be married and trying to adjust to a new city, a new team, a new level of football and a new position,’’ Crouch, now 34, said last week via phone from the NFL’s Sports Journalism and Communication Boot Camp at Bowling Green State University. “And then there were the injuries that kept me from performing at the level I was used to. Everything seemed to be stacked against me.’’

Crouch continued: “Looking back now, I should’ve used my rookie year as a learning experience. I was in an ideal situation for a young receiver, working with Mike Martz alongside guys like Isaac Bruce, Torry Holt and Ricky Proehl.

“But I was never passionate about being a receiver.’’

 “I tried to convince myself that I could become a receiver, but playing quarterback has always been my passion. I misled Mike Martz and the rest of the NFL, and that’s something I regret.’’

11 years later is a lot of hindsight for self-reflection. All I know is that he was straight up told move to receiver or he won't get drafted. Don't remember hearing a peep out of him about it.

A team in London is an awful idea. All that traveling, guaranteed poor football games. I hope it's an AFC team.
 
Eric Crouch :lol: what a throw back. Dude won the Heisman in 01 as well. I don't recall if he was doing well or not with the Rams but he got nailed against the Titans I believe and they had to drain blood from his leg. Then he retired. IIRC, he was not that open to being a WR.
 
at least the Titans didn't take Locker with the #1 overall pick which is where many thought he would go if he didn't go back for his last year
